I split the horde into two. One was led by me, while the other I left in Gi Za Zakuend's hands.

The centaur village was situated west of the araneae village. Their houses were built with trees and animal hide, and they numbered almost 500. As a tribe, they are known for their hunting and their ability to process iron.

Orcs and goblins once lived near their village, but they drove them away. Daizos' grandfather is said to be a great warrior who slayed many goblins by himself.

The centaurs apparently traded their iron with the elves. That was one of the reasons why they were situated so closely to them.

The centaurs are renowned for hunting with their bows and spears. Their spears are said to be no weaker than a humans', and their bows are said to be the strongest among the demihumans.

The centaurs' unique skill was 'Herculean Strength'. When a centaur reached the chief class, the Herculean Strength skill would be able to bolster one's strength so much that he would be able to crush a rock crab barehanded.

"In other words, they are one annoying bunch," the youth of the mud-scaled tribe leading the way said.

It's been three days since we left, yet the youth's mouth showed no signs of stopping.

The members of the mud-scaled tribe were able to swim through dirt. Seeing this youth dig through the earth like it was swimming with only its head out really left one speechless.

"From here on the there'll be tall grass everywhere, so please be careful. The centaurs are very near."

We've been moving on bare land all this time, so it was easy to see the mud-scaled youth, but in a place flourishing with tall grass, there's a chance we might lose sight of him.

Pushing aside the tall grass, we followed after the mud-scaled youth.

Well, this isn't so bad. As long as we pay attention, we should be alright.

"Gi Ba go scout the path ahead," I ordered.

Gi Ba left after bowing.

The tall grass blocked my vision, so I couldn't see what was up ahead. With the situation like this, I ordered the goblins to form three-man cells and scatter, paying careful attention to the surroundings.

We proceeded like that, while I made sure that no one strayed off. Halfway through the meadow, someone yelled from up ahead.

It was Gi Ba.

"Enemy!" He yelled.

Immediately, I drew my sword and ordered my men. "Secure the periphery! Take down anyone who comes!"

A centaur came and swung his spear. My sword clashed with his spear, and while I managed to flick it away, it was heavy. Saying that their spears were no less heavier than a human's was not an exaggeration.

The centaurs came one after another. Their bodies were big. The bottom part was horse, while the upper part was man. They were all either as big or bigger than me.
